WHAT IS THE ADA?
Basic Purpose:
“No entity shall discriminate against an individual with a disability in connection with the provision of transportation service.”
- Section 37.5 of
the Americans with Disabilities Act
SLIDE 4
STUDY PURPOSE
To improve Access, Security, & Operations at Space Coast Area Transit’s bus stops and to develop the ADA required self-assessment and Transition Plan
SLIDE 5
STUDY OBJECTIVES
Inventory conditions at bus stops Identify/prioritize improvements to address accessibility, security,
- perational & passenger comfort
issues Develop phasing plan to implement improvements based on anticipated funding

SCORING & PRIORITIZATION
- Bus stop conditions
- Accessibility
- Safety/security
- Operational efficiency
- Prioritization
- Ridership
- Cost estimation of
improvements
- Nearby trip generators
Accessibility
- Obstructions
- Sidewalk Compliance
- Landing Area Compliance
- Pedestrian Crossings
Safety/Security
- Lighting
- Potential Hazards
- B&A in Safe Location
Operational Efficiency
- Presence of Traffic Signal
- Bus Stop Relation to
Intersection
SLIDE 21
RESPONSIBLE ENTITIES
Space Coast Area Transit –Signage –Shelters –Boarding & alighting area –Connectivity from existing sidewalk to accessible path County & Cities –Sidewalks –Curb Ramps –Obstructions Private entities –Obstructions

COSTS
Cost Estimate: ~$6,000,000
–Costs are planning level estimates, once the projects progress through design, the actual construction cost will become more refined. –ROW costs are not included in the estimate.
